New Equipment: EyasSat Nanosatellite CubeSat Hardware Emulator

The NIMBUS lab has acquired a new tool to for our research, a CubeSat hardware emulator manufactured by EyasSat. This emulator will enable the NIMBUS lab to design and perform experiments in a new environment: Space! Initial planned experiments include: design and testing of new attitude control laws, efficient allocation of computational resources through advanced trajectory planning algorithms, testing new Earth observing sensors tailored for gathering agriculture data for Nebraska.
